  • Early Childhood Education is the backbone to a solid education. Children will have many opportunities to explore, create and challenge themselves. Our dedicated teachers create a classroom that enhances learning and socialization between the children and the teachers. With the help of our excellent teaching staff, your child will excel. Each child isunique and will be treated as individuals. Our teachers have over 100 years experience working with young children here at KinderCare. Our knowledgeable and engaging teachers will make sure that your child is having fun while learning. It is never too early to get a start on a great education.

  • One of the center's many features is to make sure that the staff and the children are safe at all times. We have a keypad entrance that requires a code. The Allentown Parking Authority monitors the parking lot at random times throughout the day. The playgrounds are all fenced-in, and we have ramp access through our back door which also requires a code to enter. Once inside, the center follows strict guidelines to ensure that all children and staff are safe at all times.
